Sitting on the sill looking down into the Jokhang temple yard
On the second floor of the Jokhang temple many monks, worshippers and visitors were sitting at the edge of the ledge reading out the text in their booklet which is preached by the high monk downstairs.
This is the flickering doorway leading into one of Tibet's most intensely religious atmospheres. For more than a thousand years millions of pilgrims have trod these sacred paths with devotion in their hearts; this cumulative focusing of intention and love has charged the Jokhang with an enormously powerful field of sanctity.

Wonderful picture! Felicitous perspective! I like to see people in their natural surroundings, in their natural behaviour. Thank you!Sigrun
